When “Firework” was released back in October as a single the track was coming out of a slump; initially popular on Teenage Dream‘s release it declined as the buzz around the record’s release died away. But it was one of the best received critically, reportedly echoing Perry’s own opinion of the track.

When it did drop as single, accompanied by a suitably epic video, “Firework” shot up her charts, going from around 15,000 listeners a week to over 30,000. It tops her track charts at Last.fm this week, with 34,094 listeners in the last seven days.

Today “E.T.” is in almost exactly the same position “Firework” was back in October. Slumping to around 8-9,000 listeners a week it needs a boost to get back into the spotlight.
